6 weeks is up on Wednesday (tomorrow!), will call them then to follow up, but it sounds like a lot of scan dates in early November are being completed! Mine is Nov 9th so i'm hopeful it will be soon.

Also - how do you get your timeline to show up in your signature?

I think everyone just creates their own and types it out? Because ours are all a bit different :)

Has anyone asked NVC about which days they are closed for the holidays? I'm wondering if they will be open this Friday and next Monday or not.

For those still waiting, what is your scan date? Mine is October 28. Put on Supervisor Review December 12. So I am at 7 weeks and 4 days. When I call they tell me I should hear something any day and still nothing.

Has anyone asked NVC about which days they are closed for the holidays? I'm wondering if they will be open this Friday and next Monday or not.

When I spoke with them yesterday, the guy said they will only be closed on Monday.

Just an update that I'm still waiting as well. Scan date October 31, supervisor review December 16. It'd be nice if CC came on the 22nd- it's the 7th anniversary of when we met. :)

Is police clearance certificate a must for NVC for case complete? If we submit IV package without PCC, will there be any check list before interview is scheduled?

I know we need original PCC before entering US consulate in Mumbai for visa interview.

Please share your experience if you were able to get case complete without submitting PCC copy to NVC.

Thanks

I know that there have been a couple people in this thread who got a checklist for not including PCC, which slowed them down.

The PCC is one of the original items I received on my checklist. Its now however not required by NVC for Japan and my case has been updated accordingly.

I would call them to find out if thats the same set of rules for India

I had couple of questions:

1) Does anyone gets their case completed less than 6 weeks; my scan date for me is November 29th?

2) Also, how long it takes for US Embassy New Delhi to schedule an interview after CC? For tourist visa it is 3 day wait time.

Thanks!

I really am hoping to not get a checklist because this process has already been long and time consuming enough. I'm curious, for those of you who got a checklist, what did you get a checklist for? And what tips do you have in order to avoid that?

Also; did you have to wait another 6 weeks with a new scan date once you submitted the checklist?

My 6 weeks completed yesterday. I called NVC hoping against all the odds, but was put on supervisor review and was told that it can take another 6 weeks for this review to complete.

Does anyone know how much time does NVC take to schedule an interview after the case is complete for Mumbai,India embassy. Also is there any changes in the status of the case on their website if its ready for interview schedule or not?

Thanks.
